> Support timeout in runner API
> -----------------------------
>
> Key: BEAM-153
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-153
> Project: Beam
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: runner-dataflow
> Reporter: Eugene Kirpichov
> Assignee: Pei He
>
> Some users want to make sure that their pipeline doesn't run longer than X
> minutes (e.g. because sometimes it runs longer than that due to bugs, and in
> that case they'd rather auto-cancel it than incur the costs).
> The runner API should have a timeout option, so that if the pipeline isn't in
> a terminal state by then, it is automatically cancelled.
> Naturally, this only applies to batch pipelines.
> A simple way to implement this for a blocking runner (such as
> BlockingDataflowPipelineRunner) is a wrapper of the sort "start pipeline, and
> cancel it after timeout" inside run(). For a non-blocking runner this will
> require support on the underlying execution environment side.
